netfilter: nf_tables: add position handle in event notification
Add position handle to allow to identify the rule location from netlink events. Otherwise, userspace cannot incrementally update a userspace cache through monitoring events. Skip handle dump if the rule has been either inserted (at the beginning of the ruleset) or appended (at the end of the ruleset), the NLM_F_APPEND netlink flag is sufficient in these two cases. Handle NLM_F_REPLACE as NLM_F_APPEND since the rule replacement expansion appends it after the specified rule handle.
